Toshiba: A Micro Nuclear Reactor?
2007-12-19 06:39:00
(Hat Tip: Mars Rover Blog)With energy becoming the "word of the day" (at least among politicians) many people are taking a fresh look at nuclear power.Apparently it seems as if one company has found a way to shrink today's nuclear reactors into a more portable size--twenty by six feet to be exact.(Next Energy News) The 200 kilowatt Toshiba designed reactor is engineered to be fail-safe and totally automatic and will not overheat. Unlike traditional nuclear reactors the new micro reactor uses no control rods to initiate the reaction. The new revolutionary technology uses reservoirs of liquid lithium-6, an isotope that is effective at absorbing neutrons. The Lithium-6 reservoirs are connected to a vertical tube that fits into the reactor core. The whole whole process is self sustaining and can last for up to 40 years, producing electricity for only 5 cents per kilowatt hour, about half the cost of grid energy.While citizens on Earth may be nervous about having a nuclear reactor near ...

TEXAS: Nuclear Reactor Presents Huge Implications For NRG Energy
2007-09-27 05:19:00
NRG Energy Inc. , announced plans late Monday of intentions to build and commission a nuclear reactor in Bay City, Texas. NRG's completed construction and operating license submission would mark the first application the government has processed since 1979. With Constellation Energy Group's partially filed application and several anticipated requests from Dominion Resources Inc. and others, NRG's proposed reactor could signify an inflection point for our aging nuclear energy industry.This move comes in the wake of rising concerns over greenhouse gases, surging energy demand and improving favorable economics of nuclear energy generation. Even with the significant capital costs required, nuclear energy's average of 1.72 cents/kWh edges out the 2.37 and 6.75 cents required for coal and natural gas facilities, respectively.NRG estimates the plant to be commissioned during fiscal 2014, however increased concerns over safety and a 42 month government review, the process could take mu...
